Summary: Affordable HDTV
Review: This was my first set purchase since I retired my old 19 inch Toshiba that I bought about 5 years ago. I couldn't beleive the difference.The set has a great picture quality compared to other flat screen tubes (i.e. Wega) but is not the sharpest on the HDTV block. Still, the price makes this model more than affordable for people not looking to spend 1000+ dollars on a similar model. One of my only gripes against this tv is the color is extremely vibrant, almost too vibrant at times. Even with the built in color adjustment, in the scene of the Lord of the Rings where the Fellowship is being formed, skin tones appear to be a deeper orange then they should. In movies with harsh white lighting the picture can seem a bit to washed out, this could very well be my dvd player however or a matter of personal taste. The speakers in the system fair pretty average, with the added treble and boost bass being sufficient for most tv watching but drowning out mids when especially bassy or trebeled sounds are heard. Overall I'd recommend this set if you're in the market and looking to spend 700. Make sure you have a composite connection on your dvd player, however to enjoy the true clarity this set can provide before purchase.
